Madring

The Madring is the newest name on the calendar, a Madrid venue built around the IFEMA exhibition grounds and making its Formula 1 debut in 2026. Designed as a hybrid, it blends fast street-style sections threading past the convention centre with a dedicated permanent stretch, including a stadium-like section intended to put grandstand crowds close to the action. As an unraced layout, its true character remains to be seen, with much depending on grip levels, tyre behaviour and how cleanly its sequence of corners flows on Sunday. Its arrival is notable in another way: Spain hosts two Grands Prix in 2026, with Barcelona retaining its own separate race. Expect a city-centre spectacle still writing its first chapter.
